Our first stop as we make our way south is Wills Creek Vineyards nestled in the Appalachian Foothills of Etowah County located off I-59 in Attalla. Enjoy a wine tasting of up to 20 varieties of wine or tour the beautiful vineyard and tranquil landscape. 

Down the road in Etowah County is Maraella Vineyards & Winery located off US Highway 278 East in Hokes Bluff. Enjoy the afternoon breeze on the deck and take in the beautiful three acres of vineyard and beautiful scenery. Book a tour and tasting to try some of their award-winning wines filled with rich family history. 

Head farther south to Chambers County to the town of Five Points, home of  – you guessed it – Five Points Farm. With 20 sprawling acres and over 3,000 wine grapevines, Five Points Farm has a family-friendly atmosphere and picture-perfect vineyard. The grapes hanging off the vine look too perfect to eat.

Boasting a 15-acre vineyard with enough varieties of grapes to produce over 11 types of wine, Whippoorwill Vineyards is a hidden Macon County gem in the town of Notasulga. Located just off Highway 14, 20 minutes outside Auburn, they offer wines ranging from sweet to dry and everything in between to satisfy a wide range of palates. They host wine tastings and tours during business hours. 

Located off US 331 South in Crenshaw County, South Ridge Winery in Luverne has a selection of different wines made from native muscadine, Blanc DuBois and Black Spanish or Lenoir grapes. All their wines are 100% pure juice with no water added. You can enjoy one of their carefully crafted wines on the porch overlooking the vineyard. 

Our last stop in south Alabama is  Junavelli Winery in Brewton, a small town in Escambia County. Located off US-31 South, they carry a variety of flavors to quench any thirst. From Southern Sweet Blueberry to delicious Muscadine, Junavelli’s award-winning wines make a great stop on the way to Alabama’s beaches. Stop by the quaint tasting room and pick up some pepper jelly while you’re there.
